Brewing Techniques for Pu'er Tea

The key to brewing excellent Pu'er tea lies in mastering water temperature, tea quantity, steeping duration, and brewing technique.Raw Pu'er: Maintain water temperature between 85°C and 95°C. Younger raw Pu'er benefits from slightly lower temperatures to prevent excessive bitterness and astringency. Aged raw Pu'er can be brewed at higher temperatures to awaken its aroma. Ripe Tea: Brew with boiling water at 95°C to 100°C. High temperatures help release the mellow aroma of ripe tea. Generally, use a ratio of 5 grams of tea per 100 milliliters of water. For tea bricks or cakes, reduce the amount of tea as needed to prevent the brew from becoming overly strong.
